It's time to honor dads

"When I was a boy of 14, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be 21, I was astonished at how much he had learned in seven years." Mark Twain

Tomorrow is Father's Day and a happy day for children of all ages to go to their Dad and show their appreciation and love. Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there!
